Mashed HIS Toe.

Yesterday afternoon about 2:i5
o'clock the city ambulance, in charge
of DIR. Irvine, was called TO the IRON
works of Joseph Hall & Co., corner OF
Ninth street and the basin, to Mr.. j..
". Frost, one of the operatives, who
had gotten his foot mashed. DIR. Ir-
vine dressed the wound and LETT Mr..
Frost with his friends.
Mr.. Frost, together with some others,
was engaged in moving piece of iron
with sharp edges weighing about $500
pounds, which fell. He might have
gotten out of the way if his foot had
not been hung in some way. As it was,
he was fortunate in escaping with so
slight injury as only mashed and cut
toe. Had he been q few inches closer
to the piece of iron his leg would have
been cut of.

The Father af Many Ills.

Constipation leads to multitude of
physical troubles. 1t is generally the
result Of carelessness or indifference 10
the simplest rule of health. Eugene
Mckay, of Brantford, Ont, writes:
/ had for several years been suf-
ierer from constipation, had taken
great many different remedies, some OF
which did me good for time, but only
for time then my trouble came back
worse than ever. l was induced by
friend whom Brandreth's Pills had
benefited to try them. i did so, taking
two each night for a week, then ono
every night for about six weeks. Since
that time l have not experienced the
slightest difficulty whatever, and my
bowels move regularly every day. /
believe firmly that for sluggishness Of
the bowels and biliousness Brandreth's
Pills are far superior TO any other.
